12lbs over the weight limit and 11lbs heavier than his opponent for the guy's first fight at mw. He's either a cheat trying to get a huge advantage over the other fighter or he's an unprofessional imbecile who doesn't have the brain to come to his job in a fit state to do his job via the rules of his employment. If this is Joan Guzman vs Ali Funeka II all over again, its a sad day.
He needs to be cut from the UFC because the **** has failed his weight cut. It's BS if Zuffa don't get rid of him.
there's rumours going around that he had the shits and was given fluid replacements by the Zuffa doctors. personally i think that a spoof
To reclaim some credibility Johnson " HAS TO ISSUE A STATEMENT " of sorts to at least begin to explain this ****in un beleivable turn of events I mean this is the worst weight miss i can recall in this sport , its ****in ridiculous
All of the above including a lazy piece of ****.. Who moves up in weight and shows up 12 pounds over?? Malicious and if Vitor gets KTFO tomorrow I don't ever think I'll ever get that taste outta my mouth.
His manager is trying to spin it that he's sick and couldn't cut any more weight for medical reasons. I might have some sympathy if this wasn't the third time he's badly missed weight.
ive a feeling Rumble deliberately didnt make weight, or just didnt try is probably a better word, because he knew Belfort would have too much pride in front of his home fans and would fight no matter what. IMO, the fight should be cancelled, and Johnsons purse given to Belfort. its not like he missed the cut by a few measily ounces, its 12lb, thats 12 bags of sugar lads. shocking stuff
i agree this is a shame, but i can't help the fact that i'm a huge fan of his and still hopes he knocks the **** out of belfort tomorrow (which probably has an even greater chance of happening than before due to what happened today). But for rumble's sake, if dana keeps him, he better not let this happen again
Disagree, he's gotta come in at 205 tomorrow which means he'll be dieting all the way up to the fight...Belfort will have a big advantage
